Pakel Y-01-08 High Performance En388 CE Level 5 Cut Resistant Knit Wrist Gloves (Size 8/Medium)

I was hesitant to purchase it for my needs but it surpassed my expectations! We will be purchasing more for the whole warehouse!The interior part of the gloves are dark grey plastic like material which increases grip and handling things. And the upper part is breathable cloth which is very comfortable to wear for hours. These are not winter gloves so expect running a little bit tight or loose depending on your size selection. Additionally, these are NOT steel-mesh gloves so do not expect your fingers to survive through saw machines and always be careful while working!

These are exactly what I was looking for in wood carving gloves. I use both hands when I carve so I needed a PAIR of gloves. Most only come in a 'one size fits all', meaning use with either hand. I needed fitted gloves. They are multi purpose, too. Use in any work situation from workshop to garden. These gloves will protect your hands from most anything EXCEPT punctures. There isn't a glove on the market that can protect against punctures. It's saved me from at least 3 nasty cuts already and there was absolutely no damage to the glove at all. Oh, they are very comfortable and the medium fits this woman's hands perfectly! The wrist does start to irritate (as in itching) after a long carving session. I just move the wrist around and continue to carve. So, all in all, these are PERFECT. The price, I feel, is exceptional, too. Amazon is MY go-to shopping store! No crowds, no parking hassles and GREAT prices. My favorite one-stop shopping place. ;o)

Gloves are holding up far better than expected. I've tried lots of cut resistant gloves and these have held up much longer than any others I have tried. I handle metal parts ranging from cold rolled steel, galvanized steel and many grades of aluminum. Nothing has sliced through, nor are there any wear through spots on the gloves. I've been wearing the same pair of gloves for two full work weeks now. I typically wear out an average 3 cotton terry gloves in an 8 hour shift my company supplies. That comes out to 15 cotton terry gloves I toss in the trash per work week. Grant you I'm not paying for those gloves. But I am on blood thinners and I would rather wear something that has proven to protect my hands.

I did a lot of "research" trying to determine what the best cut resistant glove was for me. I felt like this was worth giving a try given the positive reviews and the price. I don't think this price can be beat. I have used these two times and not had any problems with them. I cannot speak to the durability, but I can tell already these will last longer than typical leather gloves. They are cut resistant. I took a knife to them (not worn) and no cut. I plan on buying several more!2016 Update: I have been using this set of gloves for moderate use including working with wood, rocks, and metal. This summer I noticed the pad of the middle finger on the right glove wore a hole. Shortly after the middle finger pad of the left wore a hole. I bought these fall of 2015 so to get roughly 8-10 months of solid use out of them seems worth it to me. The palm side grip material wore off rather fast, maybe a few months, but I did not find myself losing grip on objects.I was hoping to have a set of gloves that wouldn't wear holes in the fingers, but perhaps I'm wishing for the impossible. Nevertheless this has lasted the longest of any pair of gloves I have owned. I will purchase more!

WE had to replace a bunch of broken windows and were so much more protected using these gloves. They offer excellent grip, are very comfortable and protective. Nearly cut my pants in the process but never a problem for my hands - critical safety gear. Hope we don't have to do any windows again for a long time but we cut a lot of fish(50-100/yr) and butcher a few animals every year and we will continue to use these very moderately priced safety gloves. Used some like this for fish this summer and nary a nick - which is unusual.

They are great. I work at a print shop where it is essential to have protective gloves that fit snug when loading paper for the binder. However, as good as it protects your hands from the straps I wish the rubber would last long. In a few days I started to wear it off when holding the shrink wrap as I wrap the skids. This also diminished how well I can grab bad papers out of the bundle without having to take them off constantly. If it weren't for that it would be an excellent product.

I am a Glazer (I repair and install windows) and I wear these gloves daily. They are by far the best cut resistant gloves I have ever used. They have saved my hands from many potentially VERY nasty cuts and have lasted through daily use since I bought them.The other day I was using a rotary grinder on steel when the grinder slipped and caught my left index finger... it's the only thing that has cut through this glove and it saved my finger from a much more serious injury (it's just a flesh wound).The rubber compound on the palms lasted about a week, so I don't judge these on grip - once that wears off, they are kind of slippery in the palm, but I didn't buy these for grip, I bought them for cut protection and I will buy them again!Update: I bought 2 pairs in February of 2017. I still work with glass (and other very sharp things) on a daily basis. These have protected my hands from minor, and potentially major cuts for almost a year and a half.Time for another pair or two.

As an old guy I've used many kinds of work gloves. I'm hard on them: splitting and stacking firewood, pulling thorny berry vines, carrying pavers and rocks, and working soil around plantings. The gloves often get wet and muddy so I use 3 pair, alternating them so they can dry out. There may be better gloves out there but for this price and their durability I judge these Pakels to be a good deal. I'm ordering another set of 3.
